Joining Lumber

May be the wrong place to ask this, but I was planning on building some kind of baritone, using an old beginners bass neck.

 

My question is, I have a pile of 2x4 pieces from a recent project, I got a jigsaw, a tablesaw and a flat sander (not orbital). I want to join a bunch of 2x4 pieces together to make a body blank, I can get Titebond II by the gallon at the local hardware store. How do I prep the pieces? Just run them through the table saw for flat edges and clamp 'em all together? Do I have to use a special blade, or sand them after cutting or is it just enough to run them through once per side?
